The First Week of 2nd Grade

We had a great first week of school in 2nd grade! We jumped right into learning and spent quite a bit of time learning about our behavior plan and the rules of our school! 

We started our days in the library with the rest of 2nd grade to learn about BIST! Ask your child a few things about this behavior plan. 

Our two Bottom Line rules are:
  • It is never okay to be hurtful
  • It is never okay to be disruptive
We also use three goals for our life that we use every day in school. These rules are:
  • I can take good care of myself, even if I am mad.
  • I can be productive and follow directions even if I don't want to. 
  • I can be okay, even when others are not okay.
These 3 rules we talk about every single day and if there is a problem, we talk about which rule it was that we had a hard time with. We also practiced how to calmly go to the safe seat in order to remove us from the situation and think about what we need to work on. 




We did lots of review work in our classroom!





We did a collaborative learning activity where students in our classroom had to Find A Friend that had done something to fill in a box on their paper. This was a great way to get to learn a little bit about our classmates and work together!












We also got to visit the library and go on a hunt with Mrs. Schwindt! Our library time will be 1:00pm every Wednesday. Second Graders are allowed to check out 2 books, but only if they bring their books back from the previous week!



We ended our week with our all school assembly to learn a little bit about Meadow Lane and about all of the teachers in our building!



We are so ready for this week to be a great one!
